▷ NETWORK MINGLE #1

▶ TFLN.

Although ocular & brain implants are the means of communication nowadays, a messenger service still exists in this world. Mostly everyone uses LINE nowadays even if the need for cellular phones is null. Characters may have already recognized the interface to be somewhat familiar with the similar shade of green and same old slogan.

It happens the first time, and several times throughout the week as your character goes about their new routine. The sound of machine-like whirring, deep within their cranium, like a computer that’s in the midst of processing some new information. Then, there’s the familiar ping of a new public message, and whatever you were thinking about at that point of time will be plastered on the network, for all to read and react to. Daydreaming about ponies at work? Having a fun night out at a club? Regretting said night out at the club? Falling into a deep depression about how your life has turned out so far? It doesn’t matter when or where, because the system doesn’t discriminate. You’ll soon find the thoughts you were having during those moments posted on the network and it won’t be possible to delete.

"The system is updating …

...

The system is updating … "

That’s the only explanation SYNTHIA will give when prodded or asked to take down a post. She’s not too helpful at this moment.

"Yeah, sorry. She gets temperamental like that sometimes. I can’t really do anything about your business being out there. But it’s pretty funny, right? Looks like you got hella wrecked last night. Good for you."

Welcome to our first Network Mingle! This is a TFLN-inspired mingle that’s been tweaked to make it completely canon to the game. Due to a glitch in the system, random thoughts that characters might be having throughout the week will be registered as network posts and posted in public for all to see and respond to. This can happen at any time as they wander around the main base or different Neo Tokyo locations!

HOW TO PLAY:
1. Write out prompts (example below) for others to respond to. These can be thoughts they’re having in bed, at work, while intoxicated or what-have-you. You can look up shower thoughts or TFLN as inspiration, but remember that this will be game canon so it has to be written in your character’s voice.
2. Go around and respond to others!
3. ???
4. PROFIT!

Participation in this mingle isn’t obligatory, of course. If you don’t want your character to participate, you can simply assume the glitch did not affect them.

We also have a code below for fun, but please don't feel pressured to use it. As always, a regular text thread works out just fine! Most importantly, have fun!

un: csm

[nutkick]

there was kissing going on in that party?!

[ oh, he's mad he missed it now. ]

[kanzashi]

what party
the proper one or the everlight one?

[actually....]

nevermind the answer is yes all the same

[nutkick]

[ .... ]






i'm not skipping any more parties even if it kills me.

@babylon

[psyker4649]

u in yellow team too, i take it
i recommend earplugs if the conbini sells em
ppl love nothing more than to bounce off the walls & have yelling matches all hours of the day it feels like

[kanzashi]

exactly my point
can't they keep that kind of thing to normal daytime hours
if this is the future the earplugs have to be good, right

[psyker4649]

i think i saw noise-cancelling headphones in a store downtown??? so u can everyone drown out and listen to your tunes at the same time

they were expensy though

@rabbit

[seaurchin]

[ desperately ignoring every thought-share that feels like it might have something to do with him and the christmas party. ]

Aren't you too broke to buy us anything?

[kanzashi]

[thanks Megumi, you really are a true friend.]

they were cheap
it was those candies i gave to you guys a few days ago

[seaurchin]

[ cute .............. ]

Oh. . .

They weren't bad. [ megumi show more appreciation pls ]

@duke

[frostfist]

If it makes you feel any better, it seems a lot of people acted on impulse thanks to the mistletoe.

[ you're not alone, nobara!! ]

[kanzashi]

i hope it all gets destroyed!!
those plants caused nothing but trouble even if they looked pretty

[frostfist]

They'll probably just be back this time next year, if I've learned anything.

At least you've got a year to prepare beforehand.

[kawarimi]

(why can he relate to so much of this............)

Planning on working your civilian job to save up?

[kanzashi]

[truly suffering from success up in here...]

i don't want to but i guess i'll have to if i don't want to look homeless as i starve to death

[she's with nanami on this one, that served slop should not qualify as real food..]

（ just. politely... late to the party. #helping. ）

un: nailed it
